A Practical Guide to Diabetes Mellitus, 9/E for Endocrinology Postgraduates and Diabetes Care Physicians | Clinical Manual on Insulin Therapy, Complications, Foot Care and Glucose Monitoring: 1

A Practical Guide to Diabetes Mellitus, 9th Edition is a comprehensive, practice-focused manual from the Department of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism at Christian Medical College Vellore, now in its ninth edition since first publishing in 2004. This edition adds updated evidence on medications for diabetes and obesity, coverage of newer glucose-monitoring gadgets, and a new chapter on musculoskeletal manifestations of diabetes mellitus. The book moves from foundational physiology and classification of glycemic disorders through every pillar of day-to-day diabetes care: medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, patient counseling and psychiatric comorbidity, oral antidiabetic agents, and parenteral therapies including once-weekly insulin, GLP-1 analogs and amylin analogs. Dedicated chapters cover insulin therapy's practical aspects, glucose-monitoring gadgets, peripheral neuropathy, foot care and therapeutic footwear, hypertension, diabetic kidney disease, macrovascular complications, ocular disease and retinopathy, and metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease, with further chapters spanning diabetes across pregnancy, obesity and the lifespan. Each chapter is built around algorithm boxes, comparative figures, and clinical photographs and diagrams, with case-based clinical scenarios worked through to a management "Assessment," and closes with a chapter-end Self-Assessment MCQ set for quick review. Who This Book Is For: Endocrinology Postgraduates (DM/DNB): a chapter-by-chapter practical reference matching the full breadth of diabetes management taught and examined in postgraduate endocrinology training. Diabetologists and Physicians: a bedside-ready manual for initiating and titrating therapy, managing complications and interpreting monitoring data in routine diabetes practice. Postgraduate Medical Students: case-based scenarios and chapter-end MCQs structured for exam preparation and clinical reasoning practice. Why This Book Helps: Structures a fast-moving field: the ninth edition folds in updated evidence on diabetes and obesity medications and newer glucose-monitoring gadgets, so practice stays current. Turns algorithms into bedside decisions: boxed treatment-initiation algorithms, such as starting or shifting to insulin, translate guideline recommendations into a stepwise clinical workflow. Builds clinical reasoning through cases: worked case studies across therapy areas, including augmentation insulin therapy, new-onset type 1 diabetes and gestational diabetes, show real management decisions, not just theory. Covers complications end-to-end: dedicated chapters on neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy, macrovascular disease and foot care mean one manual supports the full complication workup. Reinforces learning: chapter-end Self-Assessment MCQs let readers test recall immediately after each topic. Key Features: New chapter on musculoskeletal manifestations of diabetes mellitus, added for this edition. Updated evidence on diabetes and obesity medications, including once-weekly insulin icodec and GLP-1 and amylin analogs. Boxed clinical algorithms, comparative pharmacology figures and structural diagrams throughout. Multiple worked case studies with step-by-step management "Assessment" answers. Chapter-end Self-Assessment MCQ sets across all major topic areas, from insulin therapy to therapeutic footwear.
